If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages.

Informations about the package silverstripe-assets-cachebusting

SilverStripe Assets Cache Busting

Automatic cache busting for SilverStripe assets by appending file content hash to URLs.

Overview

This module adds automatic cache busting to all asset URLs in SilverStripe by appending a unique parameter based on the file's content hash. This allows you to set aggressive browser cache headers (long expiry times) while ensuring browsers and CDNs (like Cloudflare) fetch updated files when they change.

Solves a common problem: When a CMS user replaces an asset with a new file using the same filename, CDNs and browsers can serve the old cached version for hours or days. This module ensures the URL changes automatically when the file content changes, forcing immediate updates.

Before:

After:

When the file content changes, the hash automatically updates, forcing browsers to fetch the new version.

Version Compatibility

Module Version SilverStripe Version Assets Version
1.x 5.x 2.x
2.x 6.x 3.x

For SilverStripe 5: Use version 1.x

For SilverStripe 6: Use version 2.x (current)

Installation

How It Works

The module automatically appends a unique hash parameter to all asset URLs. The hash is based on the file's content, so it changes whenever a file is replaced - even if the filename stays the same.

This works everywhere: file links, images in WYSIWYG content, template references, resized images, and more. When a CMS user replaces an asset, Cloudflare and other CDNs immediately serve the new version.
